Our team was tasked with developing a training program for specialists in demand in the labor market. The main goal was to balance student-centered learning with problem-based learning, while also meeting the academic requirements for a master's degree. 

By combining instructional design methodologies with product management approaches, I was able to break down a solution into smaller tasks while maintaining structure and creativity.

Here's a list of project tasks that I managed and completed:

• conducted a business needs analysis and discussion with stakeholders

• planned the project for designing a learning program

• analyzed the audience, including customer developers

• conducted a labor market analysis

• analyzed data from previous training programs of the company and its competitors

• formulated a unique selling proposition

• compiled a specification for hiring and onboarding the leading subject-matter expert

• compiled a detailed graduate profile, including learning outcomes, a list of authentic tasks, and soft skills transformations

• designed a learning concept and a detailed student journey map, including models, formats, objectives, and motivational design

• developed requirements for applicants, entrance exams, and cover letters

• developed a curriculum and planned the timeline

• pitched, defended, and edited the program in front of the university's academic council

• prepared official documentation for the master's program following legislation and the Bologna declaration

• trained the sales department and curators of entrance exams

• compiled a specification for hiring and onboarding SMEs (authors, teachers, mentors) and an instructional designer

As the leader of the LX team, I scaled an algorithm that led to the creation of two successful master's programs. My facilitation was instrumental in achieving this outcome.

The success of the program is confirmed by the fact that more than 500 students applied, and over 100 attended and paid for their education despite its high cost ($10,000+).

Thanks to the admission process, the program was able to attract students with the necessary capabilities to achieve results, realistic expectations, and a high level of motivation.

We were pioneers in creating such programs through a powerful collaboration with a prestigious university, top industry companies, and a prominent Edtech company.

I gained the confidence and skills to develop ambitious projects from scratch, as well as master effective product and project management. As a learning experience designer, I learned to balance the needs of individual students with the demands of the job market and business benefits.
